must not die without your pardon; she has
mine, God knows. Go to her and let me
watch by this dear one whose life is SO
precious to US all"
Roger clasped his hand warmly, and with
out another word led him to Suzannes bed
side, saying to the nurse:
This is her promised husband. /. her
father, authorize him to stay here until my
return" And he rode away like the wind,
leaving Raymond on his knees by Suzanne,
holding her burning hands in one of his,
while with the other he softly rubbed her
forehead, which felt like fire under his touch.
She grew calmer and quieter, and after a
while the restless tossings ceased and she fell
into gentle slumber, and the tense, drawn
look about her brow and mouth relaxed He
did not move or scarcely breathe as he knelt
there, his whole soul melting into the love
and sorrow he felt for her blighted youth.
And whether he infused something of his
own young life and strength into her or abb
sorbed by force Of will or that occult science
which we call magnetism, the fever which
had SO Slapped her youth and strength, we
know not, but as the hours went by she grew
easier and better and when morning came at
last she opened her eyes in reason again.
In the meantime Roger rode toward the
dying woman as fast as his horse could 20.
Julia listened, listened, but no sound of
horses feet broke the stiffness of the night.
and she writhed in her agony as she cried:
"He will not come He will not pardon
me. Pierre, pray you, go TO the window.

yard and see if they are coming. Quick.

might have soothed my dying bed. He did

Pierre went and looked He looked several
times, but they did not come.

and already her features took on that awful
pallor Of the dead, when horses hoofs were
heard. Zone, only one," she whispered.

Steps came rapidly up the stairs, but just
as the door opened and Roger Laroque stepped
in, Julia drew her last breath, and it was be-
fore her inanimate corpse that he knelt, and
then, when they told him she was dead, he
bent over that marble forehead and kissed it

The Influence of English Fiction
Upon American Society.

English history" says Mr. j. w.
De Forest, in recent letter to the
press, sis ancient, impressive, and
far-famed, compared with our own; it
IS more agreeable to identify ones
self with the ivy-grown castle than
with the lowly and transitory log
cabin. In the second place, an En-
glshman may be noble, which is
not possible with an American. When
the New York dude puts on British cos
tune and shutters in British accents,
he is not trying to pass himself for
London shop-keeper, but for a swell
out of the English pecrage or squire
archy. Now why are we so prodig-
iously impressed by the ivy-grown
castle and by the class which belongs
to itP 1t is because our minds are
drenched from childhood with English
fiction. In our reading we are still
colonial; we have never had our war
of independence. A host of English
novelists fill the minds of our youth
with English pictures of life, English
ideas and preferences and prejudices.
From the age of fifteen the American
dude has been revealing by magma
ton in the aristocratic society of the
mother-land, and learning to wish
that he could attain to it. 1t is not
to be expected that he should remain
fervidly patriotic or democratic in his
fancies and manners"
All this is perfectly true, and it is
also true that the literary subject
ion in which we are to England
has its lovely and charming phase as
well as its odious aspect. We sit at
the feet not only of the second-rate
English novelist, but of the sympa-
thetic and winning English poets, and
the ideal England is so endeared to us
in earliest childhood by the very
nursery rhymes, that when we come
to the real England nothing is strange
there but the Englishman. We have
known those gentle hills and streams,
those green fields and hedges, those
low, soft skies, those rocks and larks
and nightingales, all our lives; and
even if we are snobs, as most of us
are, genuine poetic strain in us is
touched by the sight of noblemen's
castles and gentlemcn's palaces, and
their parks and pleasances. Every
thing in England is appreciate to the
literary sense, while the sense of the
literary worth of things in America is
still faint and weak with most people,
with the vast majority who TASK for
the great, the remote, the romantic"
who cannot embrace the common"
cannot ''sit at the feet of the familiar
and the low, in the good company of
Emerson. The effect 5 no doubt such
as Mr.. De Forest suggests, with these.
We are all, or nearly all, struggling
to be distinguished from the mass, and
to be set apart in select circles and up
per classes, like the fine people we
have read about. We are really
mixture of the plebeian ingredients
of the whole world; but that is not
bad; our vulgarity consists in trying
to ignore "the worth of the vulgar
in believing that the superfine is bet

A Change.

The present indications OF the DISPOSE
ton OF labor to acknowledge the rights Of
capital are very significant of a change in
the views and ideas held by labor organ
ixaiions. And whom we say labor organ
izations, only those recognized as truly
such, are meant. The feeling Of antago-
uism is giving place to co operation; in
dependence to mutual dependence resist.
ance to support; and prejudice to friendly
feeling. The fact OF the iuseparable well
fare of the two has been proved, and the
mutual concessions mark q determination
to avoid unre asonable conflict.
1t can be safely said that this change is
ominous OF q renewed prosperity to both
labor and capital, and especially to the
former. During the past four years the
condition of the laboring classes has al
times, been critical. Sutferings and de.
privations have been endured under sin.
cere but mistaken convictions. The strikes
and lock outs have resulted disastrously
to the laboring classes, either directly in
the loss of wages, or indirectly in the
withdrawal of capital. Since the cost Of
production lies mostly in the price Of
labor, this change in the attitude of the
heretofore belligerent parties. promises
